It's an awesome performing bike, I'm stoked with it.
Cheers, close to having all the bases I need covered.
Question time, we're in the early stages of planning a holiday (London/France -4 weeks) and I want to take a bike. Which one? I want to ride everyday but time will be limited by visiting old haunts in London and touristy stuff with the kids. I want to take the Yeti but the thought of riding it around and leaving it locked on the street fills me with dread. Do I take a fixed gear to get me mobile daily and just hire a mtb when I get a chance -can you hire proper mtbs at trail heads- or just suck it up and take my own mtb, or do I not bother at all and try to bludge one considering the amount of luggage we're like to be carting through Heathrow and CDG anyway. Faaarkkk.
